[AWIPS #KUL-365892]: CAVE and macOS Catalina

Hi Jim,

We have not run CAVE on the latest version of Mac, and that very well could be 
an issue.
CAVE does run on python 2.7, but I **believe** we package python with it (we do 
for the
Linux install at the very least, I'm not 100% sure about Mac).  
Two quick things:
-Have you tried deleting the caveData directory in your home directory and then 
restarting
CAVE?
-If that doesn't produce any better results, have you tried uninstalling and 
reinstalling
CAVE completely?

If that doesn't improve anything, we'll have to figure out which log files to 
look into
and see if we can find what error is being thrown exactly.  I'm sorry this has 
been giving
you trouble.
One other quick thing, I know of at least one user that runs a Linux VM on 
their Mac, and 
runs CAVE that way.  That might also be a *quick* solution for you to get CAVE 
running
back on your Mac without having to revert OS.
Thanks.
